There are worse 1080p graphics cards.
What I cant explain with it, admittedly, is why the RX 7600 exists.
It’s also a few coins cheaper than its main, green-eyed rival, the RTX 4060.
Its the GeForce card that more often finds a double-digit advantage, especially inShadow of the Tomb RaiderandHitman 3.
That 75fps result on the RTX 4060?
That was without DLSS 3s AI frame generation.
Flick it on, and it jumps up to 97fps, easily beating the RX 7600s upscaled effort.
Add Quality DLSS, and it pastes the RX 7600 with 70fps.
If you want a budget 1440p card, then, the RTX 4060s extra flexibility and performance wins out.
AMD Radeon RX 7600 review: 1080p performance
No, is that answer to that.
They never fail to reach well beyond 60fps, including for toughuns like F1 22 and Watch Dogs Legion.
A 5fps difference inMetro Exodus, 8fps difference in Hitman 3 and a dead even(!)
Shadow of the Tomb Raider result make it hard to see the RX 7600 as a worthwhile update.
At least the RTX 4060s DLSS advantage is lessened at 1080p.
Hence why with some exceptions the like of DLSS and FSR are mainly only recommended for 1440p and above.
This is also why upscaler compatibility is less important when youre shopping for a 1080p card.
Nevertheless, DLSS 3 can still be useful.
Cyberpunk 2077 also serves as a reminder of the RX 7600s general lack of ray tracing suitability.
Also, you know what else struggled with ray tracing?
The RX 6650 XT.
Its much cheaper yet is only narrowly slower, and again, offers an identical 8GB of VRAM.
Simultaneously, its not interested in targeting budget builders specifically.
One or the other would have been fine, but this?
This review is based on a retail unit provided by AMD.
